The furniture from the big box stores just doesn't survive in our everyday world. It truly is disposable furniture, and that is where CT woodwork comes in. Each piece I hand build is guaranteed to last a lifetime through the use of traditional joinery and integrity. Furniture should be cherished, not disposed to the curb every 5 years. Prior to the business, I have worked for the past 10 years in the field at different shops building high-end furniture, kitchen cabinets, and commercial store displays. Through these experiences, I have gained multiple avenues of knowledge on cabinet and furniture construction. In 2009 after graduating high school, I attended Morrisville State College for wood products technology for an associates. I learned everything from the tree in the woods, milling the logs on the Woodmizer mill, performing different joinery techniques, and using multiple finishes. I then went back for an additional 2 years for entrepreneurship and small business management for a bachelors. Once I graduated in 2013 I already knew that in the near future I would officially start CT woodwork. I found my true passion and turned it into a business that I love every moment of it. At CT woodwork I use the best materials available and make sure every piece of wood is hand picked so that color, grain, and texture all match. When I have the chance, I try to use local materials right from Long Island, New York. I believe in combining old techniques with modern tools so that each piece that leaves CT woodwork will last a lifetime. And I treat your projects with the same respect as if it was going into my own home. ### Services Provided - Custom Built-ins - Custom Home Bars - Custom Cabinets - Custom Exterior Doors - Custom Furniture - Custom Bookcases - Custom Entertainment Centers - Custom Fireplace Mantels - Custom Kitchen Cabinets - Custom Pantries - Custom Shelving - Custom Bathroom Vanities - Custom Cabinet Doors - Wood Finishing ### Areas Served - Brookhaven - Smithtown - Coram - Central Islip - Shirley - Holbrook - Medford - East Patchogue - Selden - Hauppauge - Holtsville - Ronkonkoma - Lake Ronkonkoma - Farmingville - Sayville - Mastic - Mastic Beach - Saint James - Nesconset - Ridge - East Islip - Patchogue - Manorville - Stony Brook - Middle Island - Lake Grove - Terryville - North Bellport - Bohemia - Bayport - North Patchogue - Center Moriches - Oakdale - Yaphank - Islip Terrace - West Sayville - Blue Point - North Great River - Moriches - Great River - Bellport - Village of the Branch - Nissequogue - Head of the Harbor - Fire Island - Ocean Beach - Saltaire - Upton ## Business Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Business Name | CT Woodwork | | Address | Patchogue, New York 11772, United States | | Phone | (516) 381-1046 | | Website | http://www.ct-woodwork.com/ | | Followers on Houzz | 6 | **Social profiles:** - Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/CT.woodworking - Blog — https://www.instagram.com/ctwoodwork/ ## Contact - **Houzz profile:** [CT Woodwork](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/woodworkers-and-carpenters/ct-woodwork-pfvwus-pf~1202139012) - **Website:** http://www.ct-woodwork.com/ - **Phone:** (516) 381-1046 ## Credentials **Certifications & Awards** - Long Island Woodworkers Show Ribbon Winners: - 2008 Judges Commendation - 2010 Judges Commendation - 2011 Judges Commendation - 2013 3rd Place Unique - 2014 2nd Place Tables - 2015 2nd Place Chairs - 2017 2nd Place Cabinetry - **Best of Houzz:** 1 award (2018), for Service. ## Reviews **Overall rating: 5.0 out of 5 — 5 reviews** ### All 5 reviews **★★★★★ — Peter Hutchings, Oct. 2017** > Anyone who has ever had to work with doors knows what a trick it is to get them to work right. Corey solved our problem beautifully **★★★★★ — Kathy Flohr, Oct. 2017** > Corey of CT Woodwork has created several pieces of furniture for our house and the outcomes have surpassed our very high expectations. We had been looking for quite some time at various furniture stores and nothing was what we wanted so we decided to try custom made furniture. We were a little apprehensive but Corey put us right at ease. Corey listened intently to our ideas and the designs we wanted. He then made thoughtful suggestions to improve the look and usability of the pieces. Then he emailed us sketches of the pieces to review and approve. He made the entire process very easy and fun. The pieces he has built for us are constantly getting wonderful compliments from everyone who visits our home. His pricing is very reasonable for custom made furniture. We look forward to working with Corey on future projects. Corey is a true craftsman and we highly recommend him. > > The projects were done over approximately a three year period. **★★★★★ — Melody Karuschkat, Oct. 2017** > Great workmanship! Corey took the time to communicate with me so he could produce exactly what I wanted. My son found a pencil he wanted on his website for Christmas. I asked Corey to make a pen to match . Corey also offered me a wooded pen and pencil box to complete the gift. He though of every detail and the end product was beyond my expectations. My son absolutely loved it! **Comment from CT Woodwork:** > Thank you very much for the review. I greatly appreciate it. I hope there will be many written items with his pen and pencil. **★★★★★ — Carole Balducci, July 2017** > I was remodeling a small bathroom and all the vanities available had minimal storage. Cory- CT Woodwork measured and designed a perfect size vanity just by using my ideas of what I needed. After sketching a layout for approval, he delivered exactly the vanity that I had imagined. He custom mixed the finish , the ornamental molding that he cut to scale was exactly as I had described and the completed project was outstanding. His pricing was well within that of a "store bought" vanity. I have and will recommend his work to my friends and family. **Comment from CT Woodwork:** > Thank you for the review! I greatly appreciate it. I really enjoyed creating and building this vanity. It truly is one of my new favorites. **★★★★★ — Gale Manfred, June 2017** > We hired Cory to complete a project. He had to create drawer fronts to fit 14 existing drawers and match a stain we didn't know the color or brand of. He matched the color perfectly! > In addition he created a 12 foot shelf unit above my work top. He finished it off with beautiful crown molding. All the work was done neatly and carefully. He's talented, and the quality is top of the line. The work was completed on time and within the budget. > The second project was a entertainment unit again we were very satisfied. **Comment from CT Woodwork:** > Thank you for the review! I greatly appreciate it. The cabinets truly complete the room with the added crown moulding. I hope the cabinets will be well used in the craft room. And I really enjoyed making the entertainment center. The color on the cherry complements it well. ## Selected projects - [Maple Wall Shelf Unit](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/maple-wall-shelf-unit-pj-vj~2594923) - Location: Patchogue, NY - Photos: 1 - [Espresso Bath Vanity](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/espresso-bath-vanity-pj-vj~2448945) - Location: Medford, NY - Photos: 2 - [Cherry Vanity](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cherry-vanity-pj-vj~2543707) - Location: Saint James, NY - Photos: 4 - [Zebrawood Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/zebrawood-bathroom-pj-vj~2543688) - Location: Brightwaters, NY - Photos: 4 - [Ambrosia Maple & Cherry TV console](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ambrosia-maple-and-cherry-tv-console-pj-vj~2543712) - Location: Coram, NY - Photos: 5 - [Pine Armoire](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pine-armoire-pj-vj~2763428) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Cherry Rocker](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cherry-rocker-pj-vj~2763374) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Cherry TV console](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cherry-tv-console-pj-vj~2679925) - Location: Coram, NY - Photos: 2 - [Ambrosia Maple & Cherry Room Divider](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ambrosia-maple-and-cherry-room-divider-pj-vj~2679920) - Location: Coram, NY - Photos: 5 - [Floating Live Edge Coffee Table](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/floating-live-edge-coffee-table-pj-vj~2543694) - Location: Coram, NY - Photos: 5 - [Ribbon Winning Projects](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ribbon-winning-projects-pj-vj~2614169) - Location: Patchogue, NY - Photos: 3 - [Cello Chair](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cello-chair-pj-vj~2763448) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Oak Night Stand](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/oak-night-stand-pj-vj~2763411) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Oak & Walnut Coffee Table](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/oak-and-walnut-coffee-table-pj-vj~2594938) - Location: Patchogue, NY - Photos: 2 - [Stain Glass Barn Door](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/stain-glass-barn-door-pj-vj~2543701) - Location: Setauket- East Setauket, NY - Photos: 1 - [Rift White Oak Dining Table](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/rift-white-oak-dining-table-pj-vj~6322478) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 [See all 16 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/woodworkers-and-carpenters/ct-woodwork-pfvwus-pf~1202139012) ## Ideabooks - [corti10's ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/83819035/list/corti10-s-ideas) — 22 ideas [See all 1 ideabook](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/corti10) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
